Default Cellphones And Tight Jeans - Not A Friendly Combination

http://www.pdatoday.com/more/2455_0_1_0_M/

"Siemens AB in Sweden asked themselves: "What are the most common cellphone accidents"? 300 swedish retailers participated in the survey by listing the most common reasons for end-user accidents. To squeeze the handset in tight jeans, using the cellphone in heavy rain or throwing it on the ground in rage were some of the most common "stories/excuses for accidents". "We notice that people use their cellphones directly after coming out from the shower or a gym session, even out in the rain", says Magnus Svensson, After Sales Manager at The Phonehouse Sweden in a pressrelease."

Wow. This is an eye-opener. I didn't realize people neglected their gadgets this much. Come on people, it's tight jeans. They're tight, so of course the phone has a greater risk of breaking. This ranks right up there with people who leave things on the roof of their car. Oh, wait... Yes, that is the number 8 excuse on this top ten list. :roll: Check out the link article for the complete list of excuses.
